Art in digital storytelling

The art of storytelling, it can be digital through the work of movie making which including images, pictures, and audio. There are 7 important steps to telling a story the point of view, which gives the authors view how the producer wants the information to be portrayed. It also has a dramatic question that will be answered at the end of the story. Emotional content is also involved, the power of the message. The authors voice to help personalize the story. We would like music to be added to help support storyline. You want to have just enough information, not overloading the story. Pacing is the last element, you must allow for proper pacing and flow of the story.

To make a great digital story you must include all of these elements and help students understand that it’s a great thing to use them and always think about them when making a digital story. The digital story flows with a mix of videos and images; it has live shots of the important information with audio in the back to emphasize the shots taken. The shots that they take to make the story are important and the students should learn about the elements to video making. The digital stories are a great tool to use in the class it helps with extending a lesson. This allows for students to work in small groups, learn about technology, and make a cool digital story to share with friends and family. In my unit plan is an in depth look at the TEKs and questions surrounding the digital story.
